Los Silverlake Invitational
This Saturday, February 11th, is the 6th annual Los Silverlake Invitational soccer game being held at John Marshall High School at 3939 Tracy St. The invitational pits parents and teachers from the participating schools – Ivanhoe Elementary, Micheltorena Elementary, Franklin Elementary and – in teams against one another. All the proceeds go to support the schools, to help fund extra-curricular activities and other expenses not covered by LAUSD such as music class, physical educational activities, and teacher’s assistants. The goal of the game is to raise $20,000 for the local area schools, and the event is brought to you by their parent fundraising committees: Friends of Ivanhoe, Friends of Franklin, Friends of King, and Friends of Micheltorena.
